Re: [Trinux-talk] proxy

[Matthew F. <mf...@ci...>]

For some reason there is a problem with exporting environment variables. So anything you set within
linuxrc or the /etc/init scripts doesn't work.

So the solution is to put it within the getpkg script.

The latest initrd.gz from http://trinux.sf.net/snaps/ has the new version of getpkg.

So basically put your proxy setting in \tux\config\proxy (such as http://192.168.1.10:8080) and it
should work just fine.
